Style Background
Urban Krav Maga is a reality based self-defence system drawing on:
Various Krav Maga Systems, Karate, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Traditional Jiu Jitsu, Aikido, Boxing, Tae Kwon Do, Muay Thai, Vale Tudo and MMA.
The Urban Krav Maga core syllabus contains a range of techniques that are also applicable to female self-defence, grappling (stand-up and on the ground), fighting/sparring techniques and weapons defences.
Unlike conventional Martial Arts, Reality Based Self-Defence (RBSD) tends to utilise scenario based training for simpler & faster learning.
Urban Krav Maga is constantly updated to reflect the most common attacks that you may encounter.
